Murky looking pour. Hints of amber, brown and golden in the pour. There's a bit of head that's slightly off white. Fluffy, cloud like looking with small bubbles. There's great lacing that clings to the glass like superglue.
The aroma is malty. Lots of caramel and toffee.
Flavor is caramel and toffee. There's an earthiness to this beer. The backside is full of bitterness, which is surprising considering the age.
The body is very full. While there's no burn, you know it's a sipper. The hop feeling lingers.
Amazing beer.
